Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 116

Chapter 116 Shall I Go And Beg That Gigolo?

That evening, Claudia returned to her parents' house. Maisie and Adam were both surprised to see their daughter back.

"Claudia, you're out? Your dad and I have been trying to pull some strings to get you off the hook!" Maisie exclaimed with joy.

Adam also looked relieved. "We talked to Tom, and even though he kicked us out at first, he ended up helping you in the end!"

Claudia snorted at their words. "Tom didn't do anything for me. He doesn't want anything to do with me anymore."

During her time in custody, she had called Tom on the phone. But Lachlan had scared him so much that he wanted nothing more to do with Claudia.

Tiger and his men had been caught by the police while Tom was present at the scene of their arrest. He saw firsthand how powerful Lachlan's connections were and how terrifying his strength could be.

Even Eduard himself came personally with his troops to help Lachlan out of trouble.

And as for Lachlan himself... he was a force to be reckoned with.

Tom knew better than anyone not to mess around with him anymore - especially when it came down Claudia who happened be Lachlan's ex-wife!

"If it wasn't Tom or Lachlan who helped you get out of trouble then who did?" Maisie asked curiously.

Adam chimed in too, "Lachlan must still have feelings for you! Maybe he softened up after all these years? After all, everyone knows how much he loved you back then."

Claudia's eyes flickered a few times upon hearing this but she shook her head dismissively, "It wasn't either of them. Don't worry about it."

With that said, she went into the room that Maisie had set aside just for her use during this visit home.

Although she said this on the surface, Claudia couldn't help but feel a slight unease. After entering the room, Claudia hesitated for a while, then dialed Lachlan's number.

She called several times, but each time, he hung up. It wasn't until the sixth attempt that he finally answered the call.

"Claudia?"

It was Lachlan's cold voice over the phone line

"Lachlan, it's me! I... I've come out," Claudia said in a gentle voice.

"Oh? You actually got out? Well, congratulations. What's the matter?" Lachlan asked with a smirk. At this moment, he had taken his phone and gone into the bathroom to avoid Nora, who was nearby, from hearing their conversation.

"Lachlan, I know I was wrong! Please, give me another chance for the sake of our daughter. I promise to change and be good to you. Only if we remarry can we give our daughter a complete family, don't you agree?" Claudia pleaded softly.

Upon hearing this, Lachlan couldn't help but sneer and gave Claudia only one word, "Get out!"

For the sake of Nora? When their daughter was critically ill before, Lachlan borrowed 10, 000 dollars from her to save their daughter's life. But this heartless woman refused him.

Now she talked about doing it for their daughter?

After saying that, Lachlan was about to hang up the phone directly.

"Lachlan! Wait! Please don't treat me like this! I really know my mistake now! Tom that bastard doesn't want me anymore and... I don't even know how to live without him..."

"Honey, now I understand that you are the person who loves me most in this world and treats me best. I can't live without you!"

"Honey, let's go back to how things were before. You care about me so much; surely you can't bear seeing me like this?"

Claudia said with a crying voice pitifully then continued expectantly, "By the way, there is something else I want to tell you. Can we meet?"

After a moment of silence on Lachlan's end, he said, "Claudia, do you know? I used to be kind to you, at best, it was just being foolish. But now, if I continue to have anything to do with you, that's just being pathetic!"

"People can be foolish but they cannot be pathetic!"

"So just stop it."

With that said, Lachlan hung up directly while also blocking Claudia's number at once.

Listening to the busy tone on her phone, Claudia turned pale with anger.
